The trocar tip is used to penetrate the tissue

layers of the peritoneum. Once the EASYPORT

trocar has been positioned as a guide in the

peritoneum, the trocar tip is removed from the

trokar sheath and the channel is open for the

optic or laparoscopic instruments to be intro­

duced into the inflated abdominal cavity.

The

safety trocar

operates with the same

mechanism as a Veres cannula. The blunt

mandrel is pushed back by the counter pressure

of the tissue during penetration and reveals

the sharp hollow needle. After penetration, the

mandrel slides forward again, and prevents

thus injury to the organs. It is therefore espe-

cially suited for the positioning of the first trocar.
